Hi João, Before diving into the hassle of installing additional compilers (which probably won't make a difference) I recommend to get familiar with a debugger like gdb and obtain a stack trace of the crash.
To compile PyMOL with debug symbols, do export DEBUG=1 before running setup.py. Then run PyMOL (actually: python) with gdb. There is a bit of a learning curve to get familiar with gdb, but considering that you already spend time on this problem and are willing to spend more, I think it's worthwhile.
